FS: Raliegh M-Trax 500

[Khane]

Anything you're looking for as swapsies/part exchangies?

if it was actually mine i'm sure i could think of something.
however its my sisters property (as she payed for it) and she needs the money back.

would make a great pub bike.
i'd use it myself but dont really drink :shock:

Daft question - are you sure it's Titanium?

All the M-Trax Titaniums I've seen have a model name like Ti-1000 or Ti-2000. This looks to be just badged as a "500" - which was the naming used for the full steel frames.

The old one I had was badged the same. I remember the duo-tech bit on the downtube and the cro-mo composite file.

if its a full steel frame its freakin light for a raliegh that doesnt use those nice branded tubesets.

I've got a Ti-1000. I was gobsmacked when it arrived and I unwrapped it and picked it up. It's lighter than one of my road frames.

My Brother owned that model Raleigh years ago - I can vouch that it is Titanium - well the three main tubes are but the rest is cro-mo. From what I remember it was a nice ride and weighed 27.5 lbs new. That spec is almost completely original (including the titanium handlebar, i think). The only thing that it isn't original is the saddle.

Oh yeah and was about £500 new in the early/mid 90s

thanks for vouching for its authenticity.

i know £100 is perhaps a bit much to ask but i cant go lower.
someone out there must want it >_<
